RE: starting?
EsenthelEngineSDK/Tutorials/ Inside this folder, you find tutorials.sln, launch that.

Now you can continue browsing into the 'source' folder In here, you find tons of 'tutorials' (single documented code files). Simply replace start.cpp (in tutorials.sln) with the tutorial file that you want to try and hit f5 to build.

where did "Template" come from? there shouldnt be any template

Are you using provided Tutorials.sln file?

You mentioned something about Visual Basic, EE runs on Visual C++

RE: starting?
Didn't you delete some folders from the VS project?

Because you're missing H and Source folders from the screen.

Try looking for Tutorials.exe inside the Tutorials folder itself. I get the same error when building tutorials.

To fix this, go to Project > Tutorial Properties (or press Alt + F7), click on Configuration Properties, and change Output Directory from "$(SolutionDir)$(Configuration)\" to just "$(SolutionDir)" (without quotes of course).

I am not using the new VS2010 project files that have been recently added to the SDK, so this might already be fixed if you use that (though it seems like you would be already).

RE: starting?
Make sure you have a .cpp file open first ("00 - Start.cpp", for instance).

Edit: I just built and debugged a tutorial using the "Tutorials VS 2010.sln" project and the "Unable to start program" error didn't occur.
